Changes were requested, and done now.
Thanks for the kind words everyone
I was asked to make the potato and the light a bit smaller, and IMO it looks pretty much perfect now. I thought it looked good before (and the proportions were as per the helmet pic) but it suits the image now with them being smaller.

I think the helmet would be better none pixelated. You can't identify it as a potato. But besides that amazing job!

Here you go man, all done.
It's just a bit of a quick job, so I hope it's okay - but It's better than your red text paint job
I upped your avatars proportions to the new level and also put the Portal Logo and made the disc an aperture labs disc
Fixed the text a bit.
Version 3 - fixed up a few little bits and pieces, there was a sharp edge on the disc and stuff, now i'm happy. Was annoying me because it wasn't perfect before.
Figured i should get the spuds for Audiosurf, Meat Boy and Cogs seeing as i do own them!
Meat Boy was a pain, i had beaten it on my laptop but not the PC, and the save didn't carry, AND i had like no bandages anyway, so i had to get the 20 bandages needed for Meat World. Ergh.

This is just a comparison, I slapped out a non pixeled helmet for viewing purposes.
I think pixelised is better, but it made me realise that i need to fix the pixel one again.
Here is the updated pixel one.

Politely disagree, the pixel one is just too good to replace.

I updated the Pixel one.
Needed to have the Potato pushed back a bit.
I think it's much better now.
Personally I really like them both, but the pixel one is better. It just suits your avatar better.
Sooner or later if you don't take the pixel one, you're going to end up with a non pixel art avatar, and it's pixel art you want so keep it pixelised
Plus, the Pixel Art version is quirky as well, like the lines in the helmet and stuff are sorta 'special' pixel art because it's just one or two pixels but gives you definition detail so keep the pixel one IMO.

"Follow the potatoes" just got posted as a comment on my one week old blog post about the first Portal.
That's ridiculous, haha. Are people literally searching anything Portal on the internet for clues? No idea how they'd stumble upon my little blog.

derFeef said:Okay, I know we have not much to discuss about yet, but there is an avatar request thread. Just saying
Good point.
I'll PM completely with this now rather than doing in thread (except you can't PM with tags so I might just edit this post with any avatars and link people directly to this post rather than having pages and pages of avatar discussion.
FUCK I'M HYPED all this avatar making is just making my mind focus completely on Portal 2 and i'm going fucking crazy off the hype meter.
THAT COUNT DOWN IS GOING TO SLOW....
I'm considering going to bed and having a sleep to pass the time faster, but I am hungry and have more avatars to make.
Anyone who hasn't got their avatar yet, I'm gonna do it I just need to have a break for a little while. Will post them later on.

Mini spoilers, but nothing that anyone who's been keeping up with the game will be surprised at.
The game's [I]awesome[/I], btw.[/QUOTE]

I caved.
Canceled amazon, bought off Steam - preloading.
Gonna be done in about 3 hours.
Infact this worked out better for me. It was payed for by my paypal credit. So no loss.
And even if it doesnt release today, when it does. I'm not at the whim of the Mail system. Waiting like 5 days after release for Dragon Age was torture.

Portal 2 PS3: No mouse/keyboard support
I just don't understand this at all. Sony allows it. Valve has already built the game around mouse/keyboard. The game will have cross platform co op and steamworks. There is no competitive MP to throw off the balance yet still no dice?

Holy crap you guys. I've been able to contain my excitement, but if I keep reading "I'm ready" and "GIVE IT TO ME NOW" I don't think I'll be able to manage much longer...

Go back! It's still good. Assuming this was a while ago. If you need it, get a solution to that problem and move on.
